Hey there! :D
This is a true statement. Gamma radiation comes from electromagnetic energy from radioactive decay. This decay has the shortest electromagnetic wave lengths and therefore has the highest photon energy. It is extremely dangerous. Radiation in general is something to be cautious of!
I hope this helps!

Answer:
C. H2O is the base and H3O+ is the conjugate acid
Explanation:
According to Bronsted-Lowry acid-base theory, an acid is a substance that loses an hydrogen ion or proton (H+) while a base is a substance that gains an hydrogen ion (H+) or proton. Furthermore, this theory states that, the molecule formed when an acid donates its proton is called the CONJUGATE BASE, while the molecule formed when the base accepts proton is called CONJUGATE ACID.
In this question, the following equation is given:
NH4+(aq) + H2O(aq) ⇌NH3(aq) + H3O+ (aq)
Water (H2O) is the base in this equation because according to Bronsted-Lowry acid-base theory, it accepts an hydrogen ion (H+) while hydroxonium ion (H3O+) is the conjugate acid.
Answer:
Oxygen
Explanation:
First, list out all the ions in the aqueous solution:
Ag+, NO3-
H+, OH-
In the anode, the substance lose electrons to undergo oxidation.
From the 4 ions, only OH- can lose electrons to form water and oxygen,
4OH- ---> O2 + 2H2O + 4e-
While others tend to gain electrons to form new substances instead (they undergo reduction).
Oxygen is the gas produced.
